GRC: The Israeli destruction of Gaza’s healthcare system killed 10,000 Patients
The Gaza Rights Center (GRC) said that the Zionist regime’s occupation army’s systematic destruction of the healthcare infrastructure in the Gaza Strip during the war have led to the deaths of 10,000 Palestinian patients.
In a statement on Sunday, GRC explained that these patients died due their failure to receive medical treatment in Gaza, with 1,000 of them losing their lives over the past 25 months after being refused permission to travel abroad for medical care.
GRC urged the international community to take immediate action to pressure Zionist regime to lift its restrictions, open border crossings, ensure freedom of movement, and allow the delivery of essential supplies to Gaza’s hospitals.
“Thousands of patients in the Gaza Strip are struggling for survival as their health rapidly deteriorates. The collapse of the healthcare system, lack of essential equipment and medicine, and the continued closure of the Rafah crossing, compounded by Israeli-imposed travel restrictions, are preventing access to life-saving treatment,” GRC said.
